NP3 Program Factory Preset List

Postby lawman » 28 Aug 2017, 21:00

Attached is my compilation of NP3 Program Factory Presets, gleaned from the display on my new NP3. I prepared this for my own use, before I begin deleting and adding sounds and altering Programs. You are welcome to it, but realize that it comes as is, with no guarantees. I am not affiliated with Nord/Clavia and have no official or other source for this information. I hope that someone can do me one favor, though, and confirm that all of the information relating to Program A:01 (Royal Grand) is correct, as I fear that I may have inadvertently altered it on my instrument.

No worries about making any mistakes - you can download the original settings right from the Nord website any time and upload as if you purchased it brand new. Good luck!

Thank you, SteveNordP3! I appreciate it. The reason I asked if anyone could check the Program A:01 settings for me on their unaltered instrument was because I saw apparent discrepancies in other Programs between what my NP3 display was telling me vs. what the NP3 Factory Restore download was showing. Specifically, for Programs A:01, A:11, A:21, etc. through A:91, the Factory Restore download showed each Piano sound being paired with a Sample Synth sound, whereas my display showed no Sample Synth being active (except in Program A:01). This caused me to ask for real-life data from someone else's instrument. After looking at it again, I see in each case that manually activating the Sample Synth turns on the sound indicated in the download. So, most likely, I inadvertently turned the Sample Synth ON in Program A:01 and stored the change. I can fix that. That is probably the only alteration that needs to be fixed, but I would still appreciate it if someone with a new NP3 would be so kind as to check the other A:01 settings against my list of Presets (like KBD Touch, String Resonance, Pedal Noise, EQ, Reverb, and the numerical parameter values). Thanks again.

Hello,
Let me revert to this somewhat dated thread. Are you possibly aware of any similar goodwill effort to compile the Program Factory Preset List for NP2?

Unfortunately, I am not aware of any such list for NP2; however, I've never looked for one. When I bought my NP3, I compiled a preset list for it. When I bought my NP4, I compiled a new one for it. Then, when I traded up to a Nord Grand, I compiled another new one. It shouldn't take a whole lot of time, though, to start with the NP3 chart and correct the data points back to the NP2 information. Figuring out how to organize the format was the hardest part. If you decide to go that way, I would offer one bit of advice: First, keep in mind that most of the preloaded Programs contain both a Piano sound and a Sample Synth sound. However, in many of the Programs only one of those sounds is initially activated, and the other must be turned on manually. If I had it to do over again, I would not include the unactivated "ghost" sounds. They complicate the chart, and I've never had occasion to care about a secondary, unenabled preset sound.

Million thanks for caring to reply! That's exactly how I thought I would proceed, should no courtesy compilation be available. And yes - as a matter of fact I admire the way you have conceptualised this list, saves me tons of time. I will share my list once done, perhaps there might be still people around with NP2. Although everybody would love to leapfrog to the Grand ;-)
